Abstract

It is a dangerous disease that is caused by an overreaction of the body's immune system to infection and gradually covers the whole body. This disease occurs due to a strong reaction to the infection; to deal with the threat, the body sends a large volume of chemicals into the bloodstream. This causes severe inflammation that over time slows blood supply and damages organs.
